Abstract

The growth cone behaviors that are involved in the generation of neuronal cytoarchitecture are apparently regulated in quite specific ways by Ca²⁺. Neurotransmitters and electrical activity, well known for their roles in information coding, have recently been shown to affect growth cone motility by mechanisms linked to Ca²⁺. Ca²⁺ may therefore act as a common integrator of environmental cues that influence neurite outgrowth and synaptogenesis, and in this way may play a key role in the establishment and modulation of brain circuitry.
